Don't know much about it and i'd love to agree but i've already pledged my loyalty to the danes and I dont think they'd be happy if i sided with you

The only thing good about Sweden is their past contribution to NS through the efforts of a sarcastic doctor. Other than that Sweden is totally forgettable.

I have to give my respect to Sweden. What other country is said to have 1% of its population in heavy metal bands at some point in their lives?

But Denmark and Norway are so much better!

I have to give my respect to Sweden. What other country is said to have 1% of its population in heavy metal bands at some point in their lives?

I bet Finland has at least 5%. At least.

No they're not.. and besides, trying to understand danish is like trying to understand chinese. f*cking impssible!

Edit: Finnish is even harder though, doesnt sound like any of the other Nordic languages:P

No they're not.. and besides, trying to understand danish is like trying to understand chinese. f*cking impssible!Eh. All of those Germanic languages have too many vowels.

Metal from Norway > metal from Sweden.

Metal from Norway > metal from Sweden.Yes and no. Norway has a higher concentration of very very good metal bands, but they also have a high concentration of scummy racist metal bands.

Canada's good too.

Putting 'Aryan' on your CD doesn't mean your music is inheriantly racist, it's not a good sign, but they're not Blue Eyed Devils.

Altough the USA-bashing predicts a gloryful period in NS General.

They also put "black" on it. "Aryan black". Not something a neo-nazi likes to see.

Or is black metal a kind of metal. :confused:

As well as bands that get lumped in as racists, for refusing to comment on accusations of racism, ala Darkthrone.Once more Sweden wins. Not only does Sweden have Nazi bands that aren't ashamed to admit just how fucking stupid they are, they also have bands that are falsely accused of racism & Nazism in the media, in spite of the bands' efforts to make it perfectly clear they're opposed to racism & Nazism.

Or is black metal a kind of metal.Yes. Black Metal is a genre. It's got fuck-all to do with skincolour. Aryan on the other hand..

every year around may/june time a tonne of swedish girls come to jersey for language exchange trips. i love sweden for sending us their girls :D . although i'm too old for them now, they still have some young teachers tho.

Sweden rules every other country !!:D

Sweden gave us ABBA and evil pop genius Max Martin (remember ...Baby One More Time?) :D

And who could forget about Sweden's own eurodance revivalist (enormous mullet included) (http://www.gunthernet.com)

I <3 Sweden.

hmm.. the country i think of as a global superpower really isnt usa, its actually Russia. And besides, what have USA given us besides war, KKK and high oil/gasoline prices?
Yes, and Russia has given us Gulags, the KGB, its own brand of colonialism and Stalin. :rolleyes: What a wonderful contribution to the world!

Russia, other than its nukes and oils, has little. It suffers from a declining population, a pathetic economy and delusions of grandeur. The USA, whether you like it or not, is the de facto world superpower.

Oh, and I do like Sweden. :) Especially its guys. The non-country thing is just a joke.

Wasn't Aqua Swedish? :mp5:

Well, they gave the world Volvo, Ikea, the matchstick (!), many actors and actresses and singers, Svensk meatballs, a hundred different recipes for salmon and hot people! :)

PS: Aqua was considered Dansk/Norsk.

Sweden is AWESOME! But... so are all the nordic countries. *Cry* I can't pick m favorite. Sweden has the lowest infant mortality rate I heard. And Lagom.

All of the nordic countries seem to have free Universities (baah I need that- not ones for $30,000 >__<), more biking/ public transportation, a history of neutrality, multilingual-ness, and openness (but not so much on immigration I heard >_>)

But Denmark has that whole flexicurity thing with low unemployment and low economic disparity
Finland has the spiffy sounding language Finnish (and some Swedish and Sami languages...), and education that pwns and saunas
And Norway has spiffy fjords- and past vikingness the most.


Am I a strange person for not picking sides in the awesomeness which is Northern Europe? (I'm leaning toward Finland a bit- but shhh)

All of the nordic countries seem to have free Universities (baah I need that- not ones for $30,000 >__<), more biking/ public transportation, a history of neutrality, multilingual-ness, and openness (but not so much on immigration I heard >_>)
So the concept of loans and scholarships is lost upon you, I presume? Furthermore, the Nordic countries are not the only ones to offer free university education in Europe...

I can tell you that without H&M, many people in the UK would have nothing to wear due an insane obsession with fashion. I confess that I shop there, but only because I find few other stores carry clothes my size that actually fit [I'm a very thin adult male].

How about keeping all of Europe from falling to the Soviets and being rendered poor, polluted and backward like all the former Soviet sattelite nations? Sure, Poland, Czech republic, and some other former sattelites have vastly improved, but they lost out on years of development and had to catch up to the rest of the developed world.

Ultima Thule sings that they love their country.. they never say anything rasistic/nazistic in any of THEIR songs, That would explain the nationalism, what about the ethnicism?

Dude, you mentioned Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Don't get all fucking "current events" on me now. The USA's involvement in WWII and it's commitment to anti-communism kept Western Europe from being overrun by the Soviet war machine after Hitler fell. That's one good thing we did.

what about the war against the terrorism in Iraq? have they found the weapons of mass destruction they were talking about yet?
What about the war in Iraq? The majority of the American people didn't vote for the scumbag who started it. Anyway, I never argued that we didn't do anything bad, just that the good we do outweighs the bad. Look at the ammount of aid the US gives out. Look how much we contributed to the Tsunami victims, the Pakistani earthquake victims, how much we contribute to hungry people all over the world. That does a shitload of good.

It's because of the electoral college and the supreme court. Our electoral system doesn't choose a president based on who wins the majority of the popular vote. That's unfortunate, but it's going to be difficult to change.
